Don’t Be A Dick
When I got to college, one of the two poor sophomores assigned to my freshman dorm to inject some sanity thereinto called us clueless freshmen together and spake thusly:
“In a lot of these freshmen entries, they have all kinds of rules. I don’t like rules. So we are only going to have one. Don’t be a dick.”
And we mostly weren’t, and we had a great time. The moral and political lesson I took from that, namely that small communities don’t really need more than one rule, is possibly the most valuable thing I learned in college. Thanks, Josh!
By popular demand, I’ve decided to install a commenting facility here at ErosBlog. However, I’d like to ask you all to remember Josh’s rule. I work at keeping the tone here relentlessly sex-positive and unwaveringly non-judgmental. I may slip up, but that’s the goal. I welcome your comments, but I’m simply not interested in creating a forum for haters, condemnators, repressive creeps, and the like. Lively debate, at times, is to be expected. But nastiness and anti-sex messages (and personal attacks of any sort, on anyone) will probably be deleted summarily. Be nice and play nice, please?
Thank you.

Kewl! Ya got comments! Bacchus, your a sweetie and thanks for such a great blog and all the awesome links.
(Hows that for playing nice and not being a dick? ;)
I love this site!…Now I get the chance to tell you everyday…;-)….
Yay for comments!
When I got to uni., the R.A. told us all “just don’t make too enough noise to get kicked out, and don’t leave your pubes all over the shower floors”.
I think a lesson can be learned there.
Oh goody! This is going to be fun! *rubbing hands together in glee*
this is great! it’ll be interesting to see what other people think about your posts. a little lively debate never hurt anyone ;)
Uh oh, The Nymph is here. I think I’m in twubble now….
Hi, everybody!
Excellent! Thanks for all the great blogging you’ve done so far, and here’s to the future.
Woohoo!!!
Much dancing around in glee! (naked of course :-) )
Yay, Bacchus has comments! I’ve been a big fan of your blog for some time now. I must come here several times a day(no pun intended). Love it!
Well, it’s about time! Now I can give you a little praise once in a while on my daily visits here.
Hurrah! Hopefully everyone will play nice.
Wow… (looking around in dazed wonder) am i really in Bacchus’ blog comments?
I have been a fan of Bacchus (and his various incarnations) for lo these many months. This site is truly one of my favorites on the web because it is arousing without pandering. It treats sex seriously but not humorlessly. Its fucking brilliant!
Bacchus,
perhaps you are misremembering Junior Advisors for sophomore advisors…which dorm, anyway?
Well, not misremembering so much as mis-speaking for purposes of obscurity; thanks for clearing that up (I think). I think I’ll keep the entry obscure, this is a psuedonymous blog after all.;)
Squeak! I am so happy!
I pimped this news at my blog for you!
May your hits double and your pings ping!
Thank you. Very much.
Finally, I thought we would never get a chance to respond to your posts!
Cheers!
Thanks for all the kind words, everybody! I really appreciate them.
Hey, I love your blog.
Sexy and fun.
Keep it up. I know I will as long as I have tissue paper.
Have fun
Andy
Love you, love ErosBlog, so glad to have the chance to comment, since I can never seem to get it together to actually compose a thoughtful email to you. You rock! And the nymph is very lucky.
YAY! Comments!! I’m clapping and dancing. Thanks, Bacchus!!
“Don’t be a dick”
I’ve never heard the Golden Rule put quite like that before :-)
